What are the first non-medication intervention to be done to stop bleeding if uterine atony is the suspected cause?

When atony is suspected, the bladder should be emptied and a bimanual pelvic examination conducted, any intrauterine clots should be removed, and uterine massage should be performed

This medication works as a competitive inhibitor of the lysine receptor on plasminogen and has shown it's greatest benefit when used within the first 3 hours of delivery. 

TXA

This is a life threatening condition in which either a portion of or the entire placenta invades into the myometrium and fails to separate from the uterine wall during the third stage of labor

Placenta accreta; in the presence of placenta previa and a history of cesarean delivery, the obstetrician–gynecologist should have a high clinical suspicion for placenta accreta. The risk was far higher in women with placenta previa with 3%, 11%, 40%, 61%, and 67% of such women with their first through fifth or more cesarean deliveries having a placenta accreta.

This amount of bleeding is quite concerning and should trigger preparation for mass transfusion

1500 mL; In women with ongoing bleeding that equates to the blood loss of 1,500 mL or more or in women with abnormal vital signs (tachycardia and hypotension), immediate preparation for transfusion should be made.

Which uterotonic medication is an analog of PG-F2a?

One of the largest series in studying this method of PPH management showed a success rate of greater than 80%; however, infertility has been reported in up to 43% of women

When a massive transfusion protocol is needed, fixed ratios of packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, and platelets should be used. The recommended initial transfusion ratio for packed red blood cells:fresh frozen plasma:platelets has been in the range of this ratio and is designed to mimic replacement of whole blood.

1:1:1; These recommendations are different from protocols that have previously suggested ratios such as 4:4:1 or 6:4:1 and are related to how a unit of platelets is defined. What is more important than the actual ratio is that there is a specific protocol for multicomponent therapy in place at each institution.

If treatment with medications don't work, treatment with an intrauterine balloon can be considered if there's persistent lower uterine atony. We often use a Jada. How much fluid goes into the cervical seal and to how many mmHg do we set the suction at? Bonus if you can walk through the whole process of Jada insertion

60 mL-120mL; 80 mmHg

The general aim of vascular ligation in the setting of atony is to diminish the pulse pressure of blood flowing to the uterus. A common first approach is bilateral uterine artery ligation which commonly accomplishes this goal of reducing blood flow to the uterus, and is quickly and easily performed. This technique is also known as what kind of suture?

Upon bimanual examination, the finding of a firm mass at or below the cervix, coupled with the absence of identification of the uterine corpus on abdominal examination, suggests what?

Uterine inversion 

300

Refusal of blood products is common in patients who are Jehovah’s Witnesses. This subset of patients has between a *** to ***-fold higher risk of maternal mortality from obstetric hemorrhage because of refusal of blood products

44-130; Because this population may accept some blood products, a predelivery directive that can be used in the event of a severe postpartum hemorrhage can be discussed with the patient during the prenatal period

Adverse effects of this uterotonic medication include: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, shivering, transient fever, and headache 

Misoprostol

What is this suturing technique called and how is it supposed to work? 

B-lynch; to provide uterine compression 

400

In the setting of postpartum hemorrhage and a vaginal delivery, accreta should be strongly suspected if the placenta does not detach easily, and there should be no further attempt to manually remove the placenta in the delivery room. What should the patient be counseled on before going back to the OR?

The patient should be counseled about the likely need for hysterectomy and blood transfusion.

This is the year the stop sign was installed

1915; The first was allegedly installed in Detroit, MI with a simple black and white design. It was first invented 1914 by Sgt Harold "Harry" Jackson who was a traffic guard at the time.

What is the route, dosage, and frequency of Methylergovine given in the setting of uterine atony?

What about route, dosage and frequency Hemabate?

Methergine: IM 0.2mg every 2-4 hours

Hemabate: IM or Intramyometrial 0.25mg every 15-90 min (8 doses max)

This type of suture is what we have available for a B-lynch and is allegedly located in the hemorrhage cart and in our OR in the bottom of the cabinet.

In the event of uterine inversion, manual replacement with or without uterine relaxants usually is successful with the large majority being successfully replaced in one small series. In the unusual circumstance in which it is not, laparotomy is required. These two procedures have been reported to return the uterine corpus to the abdominal cavity. 

The Huntington procedure: Progressive upward traction on the inverted corpus using Babcock or Allis forceps. The Haultain procedure: Involves incising the cervix posteriorly, which allows for digital repositioning of the inverted corpus, with subsequent repair of the incision.
